1 Website Enhancement 1.1 Christmas-ify Your Website from 100 + VAT (POA) A popular option each year is to modify your site to include a seasonal theme. Why not put a Christmas hat on your logo and people images on your homepage, add some baubles or a Christmas Tree. We can review your site and suggest some ideas; the key is to keep the design structure in place but change elements to add some Christmas Spirit. If you re thinking of something a little different, contact your Account Manager who will be happy to help. We welcome new ideas and will find a way to bring them to life. 1.2 Falling Snow - 100 +VAT Add a touch of magic with falling snow, you can have this just on your homepage, or across your website.

4 Online Advent Calendar from 800 + VAT (POA) As you may be aware if you got involved, for the last two years we have organised an advent calendar prize draw where people apply for a chance to a win a prize every day from days out to bottles of wine. A lot of people have got involved and both years have been a massive success. We got a lot of firms interested in doing the same thing this year, so we re offering the service to you for Christmas 2017! For the calendar image, you could pick a photo of your staff or office, or choice a stock Christmassy image from www.istockphoto.com. As with a regular calendar the numbers are added randomly. The logic only allows you to only click on the correct day. You will need to arrange your own prizes, you could also get local businesses to donate in return for having their logo featured. When someone clicks on the correct date they will get a pop-up showing the details of the prize and a form to enter. If you play a second day the form will use local storage to remember the details used the day before to make it even easier!
We promoted our calendar with an email campaign to all clients every day to announce the prizes on offer and remind people to enter. Speak to your Account Manager if you would like help with a social media or email campaign around your calendar.

Most of us have the luxury of going home to a warm house, enjoying a glass of Bucks Fizz and spending quality time with loved ones. We leave the office on Christmas Eve knowing we ll enjoy a few days of festive cheer before the office re-opens and we go back to the day job. Here at Conscious we know how lucky we are, and that s why we ve opted to go for a reverse advent calendar this year. We don t really need to open a door to chocolate every day - there s plenty around anyway! So, every day we re bringing in something that someone else might need. If you d like to join in too, it s easy. Pick a charity that could benefit from some extra supplies at this time of year - we re going with a food bank, but it might be a homeless charity, or a children s hospice in your local community. Bring in a new item every day that someone at your chosen cause will need - maybe tinned goods, a toothbrush, a warm scarf or a book. We guarantee that the feeling of warmth when you drop it off on Christmas Eve will beat any mulled wine!
